The Nether

Nether hub and travel system

The Nether is our fast-travel network. Travel one block here, travel eight in the Overworld. Players have built a hub to make getting around easier.

The Nether Hub

The Nether hub is at 0, 0 in the Nether (directly above the Overworld spawn portal). It's a central station with paths leading in all directions.

  • Main tunnels run in the cardinal directions (N/S/E/W).
  • Branch tunnels lead to player bases and points of interest.
  • Signs mark destinations and coordinates.

Using the Hub

To get somewhere fast:

  1. Enter the Nether from spawn (or your own portal).
  2. Navigate to the hub at 0, 0 if needed.
  3. Follow the appropriate tunnel toward your destination.
  4. Exit through a portal near where you want to be.

Portal Math

To link a portal to your Overworld base, divide your X and Z coordinates by 8. Build your Nether portal at those coordinates (Y doesn't matter for linking). Example: Overworld base at X:800, Z:400 → Nether portal at X:100, Z:50.

Building Your Own Connection

Want to connect your base to the network?

  • Build a portal at your Overworld base.
  • Calculate the Nether coordinates (Overworld coords ÷ 8).
  • Build a Nether-side portal at those coordinates.
  • Connect to the nearest main tunnel with a safe path.

If you need help with portal linking, ask in Discord. It can be tricky to get right.

Nether Safety

The Nether is dangerous. Even on established paths:

  • Bring fire resistance potions if you have them.
  • Watch for ghasts - they can spawn anywhere with space.
  • Don't dig straight down - lava lakes are everywhere.
  • Carry building blocks to bridge gaps or escape trouble.

Nether Resources

With the fresh world in January 2026, the Nether is wide open. Ancient debris, bastions, fortresses—it's all out there waiting. When Minecraft updates arrive, we preserve the main tunnel infrastructure.
